    Ireland 19-14 Australia

    Australia look to spread it but Max Jorgensen's pass is marginally forward.

    The full-back isn't having the best game so far.

    There's Mack Hansen's first error of the night as he drops a simple kick from Daugunu.

    Australia will have the scrum just inside the Irish half.

    There still seems to be a few empty seats as Sam Prendergast sends the ball into touch.

    Must be long queues for the local beverages.

    The teams are back out on the pitch and it shouldn't be long before we're back under way.

    Ireland have conceded an awful lot of penalties and for Australia to have someone like Len Ikitau, they are so powerful.

    Andy Farrell will want to cut out the penalties.

    Just a reminder after that last Australia try, the Wallabies' last three visits to Dublin have all been decided by three-point margins in Ireland's favour.

    Despite a half that Ireland seemed to be well in top of, Australia are still within touching distance.

    The second half could be a tight one.

    Mack Hansen with a hat-trick in 27 minutes, he will be delighted with himself.

    The way they were playing until then you thought that Ireland were going to run away with the game, but it is absolutely not gone the way they wanted it to.

    Can we all just take a moment to appreciate that *this* is how Sam Prendergast found Tommy O'Brien in the move that led to Hansen's third try.

    What a kick.

    I'm not entirely sure what the odd boots are about from Mack Hansen, but it seems to be working.

    You're going to be seeing kids on rugby pitches wearing odd boots up and down the country over the next few weeks.

    It's been a pulsating first half in Dublin.

    No doubt that Mack Hansen has been the star of the opening 40 minutes for Ireland but the Wallabies have wrestled themselves back into the match to to leave it a five-point game at the interval.

    Australia got a bit of momentum and what you see is them narrowing things up and going after the power game.

    They pressure pays off! Fraser McReight crashes over in the final play of the half!

    It had been coming.

    James O'Connor lands the conversion and there's five between the sides.

    Australia have shown throughout this first half that they are trying to take a lot of quick balls going forward.

    If Ireland haven't worked it out already, the message would have been passed across to put them under pressure.

    That flat throw, if you can get ahead of it, is there to be taken

    Tadhg Beirne strays offside and Australia will have another shot at putting some pressure on.

    O'Connor's kick is into the corner.
